My office has two clear factions. One is those who hate Trump and consider him a great embarrassment and will openly insult him in public at work. The other is people who hate Trump but don't think people should talk politics at work because it's distracting. There has been some conflict between these two groups.

Wow, still peddling that lie are you? I thought that died years ago.
For anyone not familiar deaf people sometimes wave their hands instead of clapping, because obviously they can't hear the applause.

Most of them moved on after a day or two but apparently not ruddk.
I remember it from Occupy Wall Street, people would "jazz hands" to show approval of speakers who were un aided by a sound system, so as to not interrupting or overwhelm them.

Of course not, that would have been "triggering" to some. I believe that "jazz hands" are the appropriate response.

Even if it were untrue, it's still a funny idea.
